The Goat AND THE Warrior
With seven AMA Pro Motocross Championships and five AMA Supercross ones to his name, Ricky Carmichael’s legacy speaks for itself. Carmichael won an incredible 24 motos straight in the 2002 AMA outdoor season. He’s won X Games gold medals and the list of achievements goes on and on.
Nobody knows Chad Reed better as a racer and adversary than the GOAT. The battles these two had were intense and the rivalry escalated during the 2003 supercross series as a rookie by the name of Chad Reed took it to the champ.
Tensions rose drastically thanks to the two athletes’ massive entourages, which often seemed to have bigger egos than the two riders! Once James Stewart entered the fray, the trio had some of the most fiercely fought battles that our sport has ever seen. Each rider had their own strengths and minimal weaknesses.
